The dust hasn't settled yet. Sony reported today that its Sony Music Entertainment Greece servers have been hacked and more personal information has been stolen. They're not reporting the loss of any credit card information, but Sony's clearly being targeted by hackers on an international level.
We'll keep you posted as we find out more information, but for now, as always, keep track of your credit card and bank account statements. For more information, see this link: http://mashable.com/2011/05/24/sony-hacker-attack/ News of the hackers getting into Sony's databases is taking another downward turn as Sony has announced that its "Sony Online Entertainment" servers have been hacked. This brings the total count of affected users upwards of 24.5 million. If you have ever bought anything online from Sony I would be keeping close track of the charges on your credit cards and bank accounts for quite some time.

Sony managed to annoy a lot of hackers, who have taken it in turn to crack the security protocols of Sony's PSN and steal users' personal information. If you have ever bought anything directly from the PSN (meaning you downloaded it on your Playstation 3), you should be keeping track of your bank statements.
